The Evil God of Hogwarts

The early morning fog covered the dawn sky with a layer of gauze, and the street lamps shone with a brass halo, like a pair of devil's eyes.

The moist and sticky mist also carries the rancid smell of sewers and the unique fishy smell of sea water. Xing Ze wrinkled his nose, and the sound of waves in his ears became clearer and clearer, which meant that they were almost at their destination.

There were drops of water on Officer Ribben Woflin's coat, and the sweat slid from the top of his head, down the sides, and finally gathered on his chin with a little stubble, and then shivered due to the trembling caused by walking. Fall to the ground.

"We're almost there, sir." As if afraid of Xing Ze's urging, the black police officer announced their itinerary.

"No need to worry, officer, I just want to see the scene."

Ribbon wiped his sweat with his sleeve, "There is nothing interesting in that place. We took photos where necessary. Maybe we should go see the corpse. Of course, this is just my opinion. After all, you are... …”

The police officer did not continue speaking. Xing Ze did not feel any complaints or dissatisfaction in his words. Perhaps the Muggle police officer simply wanted to know how the wizards handled the case.

"After all, I am a wizard." Xing Ze finished the sentence, "Officer Woflin, uh, maybe I should call you superintendent?"

"No, it doesn't have to be so formal. You are my son's teacher and a special investigator. Just call me Ribbon or Wofflin."

Xing Ze smiled and nodded. Roma mentioned in class that his father was a policeman, but he did not specify that his father was a senior superintendent of the Merseyside Police Department in Liverpool.

In this day and age, it is not easy for a dark-skinned police officer to climb to this position, not to mention that Ruiben looks to be in his forties.

Therefore, Xing Ze did not dare to underestimate this Muggle policeman. He had either put in far more efforts than ordinary people, or he had quite good capital, but no matter what, he was worthy of not being underestimated.

"Okay, then Mr. Wofflin, haven't the four bodies been dissected yet?"

"Yes. We originally planned to do an autopsy, but you didn't pick him up before we started. Our detectives didn't have time to make a detailed on-site report."

"Who found the body?"

"A group of dock workers. They just finished their work and planned to go to the bar for a drink. Well - it must be two o'clock in the morning."

Xing Ze quickly recorded this information in his notes. Something happened suddenly and he needed to know more about the entire case. On the way here, he had been talking to Ribbon about his son.

Roma was originally placed on the list for a home visit - because he failed to pass the make-up exam - but it was not that high on the list. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xing Ze had a chat with his father.

From this father's mouth, Xing Ze got a lot of news about Roma. According to his father, his son looked very worried when he returned home, but refused to say anything, not even communicating much with his wizard mother.

"I heard that the corpse was placed in an S shape?"

Ribben slowed down, took a breath and said, "Yeah, I haven't seen anything so weird in five years as a patrolman and eight years as a detective. Hell, I forgot the photo in the car. You really It’s time to check it out.”

"No rush, let's go see the scene first."

"It's right ahead." The superintendent pointed forward, but he soon realized that the mist blocked his view, "This damn weather, be careful, sir, we are going down the steps."

Two minutes later, Xing Ze stood in front of a giant water outlet.

"There, that's where the body is." The superintendent pointed to a location not far away.

Xing Ze looked in the direction he pointed, and the four corpses arranged in an S shape were not far from the water outlet.

"What size were the four victims?"

Ribbon took out his notes, put some saliva on his tongue with his thumb, and then started to flip through it. Not long after, he replied: "Two big guys, one small guy, and one of medium height. The specific number needs to wait." It can only be given after forensic autopsy.

"You have to know, sir, that the four corpses were all swollen with water. When we were carrying them, we were really afraid that they would explode."

After saying that, the superintendent looked at Xing Ze's notebook with envy, because the notebook was hanging next to Xing Ze, and a quill was automatically recording everything on it.

"Magic is always so magical no matter how many times I see it." He said with emotion, "Back then, my pregnant wife used magic to stop a car that crashed into her. From that moment on, I knew that my life would change. Very different.”

"Don't you blame your wife for cheating on you?"

"One thing, she could have told me about this earlier. However, if I think about it carefully, if she hadn't been a wizard, I might have lost her and Rom."

Xing Ze smiled, walked towards the location of the body, circled his index finger and asked, "It's right here, right?"

"That's right. It's strange to say that judging from the degree of decomposition of the four corpses, they should have been dead for a while, but each corpse is intact. This is simply a miracle in a place like this. Generally speaking, , flies, rats and other things will definitely come to eat the corpse."

Although the body had been moved away, Xing Ze could still smell a rotting smell. He looked at the pebbles under the body and then took out a small knife from the ring.

He squatted down and turned over a few rocks with a knife, picked up some soil from underneath and smelled it. "A mystery has been solved."

Out of his professional acumen, Ribbon came over curiously and asked: "What puzzle, sir?"

"Why don't rats or flies visit these corpses? Do you have an evidence bag?" Xing Ze asked.

The superintendent nodded, put away his notes, took out several transparent plastic bags from his pocket and handed them over.

"Just one." Xing Ze took one, shook the dirt off the knife, then dug some more out of the ground and put them into a plastic bag.

He stood up and handed the evidence bag to the superintendent and explained: "Animals are far more sensitive than us. The four corpses were highly poisonous, so they were not bitten. Take the soil with you to the identification center.

"I think this also explains why you are not allowed to dissect the corpse. Anyone who has been in close contact with the corpse needs to conduct necessary examinations and observations."

Ruiben was born as an agent, and he completely kept up with Xing Ze's rhythm, "I'll do it right away."

"Remember to ask someone to seal off this place." Xing Ze reminded again.

"Of course. Are you going to the appraisal center with me, okay?"

"No, I'm going to see the wizard who asked you to stop."

"Then I can give you a moment. Burke should be at the police station now."

"Then let's set off." Xing Ze turned around and headed towards the shore. When he passed the water outlet, he looked inside. The dark passage was like the mouth of a giant beast.

Four anonymous naked corpses were arranged in some ritual shape, and the corpses were still poisonous. Humph, it looks like the last few days of summer vacation won’t be boring anymore. He thought so.
